Answer

CEO Dr. Al Sandrock differentiated Voyager's C-terminal targeting antibody from Biogen's discontinued N-terminal antibody and positioned its tau-silencing gene therapy as a one-time IV alternative to Biogen's intrathecal ASO, BIIB080. CMO Dr. Toby Ferguson identified the ongoing GLP toxicology studies as the main gating item for the SOD1 program's IND submission.
